I think it’s as much DT following the example i”of sheriffs at least as much as it is them behaving as he does. Counties, especially rural ones, have long been run by sheriff departments the way medieval fiefdoms were ruled by lords.
Yes, I think it’s important to stress this has been the case for some time and important to emphasize Trump is following in certain traditions rather than pioneering them
A really dangerous development and shows that even at the local level there can be lot of corruption and mismanagement. Is FBI mandated to act against corrupted sherrifs if state governments do not do that?
Governors have more oversight of sheriffs than most, but the gaps in oversight are part of what empowers sheriffs in the first place. FBI can’t waltz into any county where there might be a bad sheriff
If only people knew what you’ve and others have reported. It would scare them silly. In most states a sheriff’s power is more than the governor’s. With 47’s ascent to power, we truly will be heading straight back to the Wild West.

Thanks for text and your reply :)
Why don’t you people wait until he does something to complain about it.? Now all you can complain about is what might be.
Renyaw, it is no longer what trump might do. He’s doing it.
